I have the latest Kodi and pvr mythtv installed from Flatpak and it's working if I use an IP address for the backend mythtv server. However if I use the domain it fails to find it.

i.e. 
192.168.0.239 works
mythtv-vm.local does not work, 

Any ideas on how to make this work?

"Latest" is not an official version number. And have you looked at your hosts file to perhaps include your ip address / hostname conversion?

Flatpak Kodi version 20.1.0 git 20230312-289ec66.dirty

PVR-mythtv version 20.3.2

All my systems on my network are on the same subnet and all have avahi-daemon systemd service running with /etc/nsswitch.conf configured to use mDNS to identify hostnames that are on domain ".local" without further dns records needed.  This works for ssh, scp, and http(s).  

I'm trying to prevent having local files with hard coded IP addresses.
